A driving simulation research recently showed the students of Valley High School in Iowa the danger that comes with texting while driving. The event was courtesy of a telecommunications company, said in a report from woi-tv.com. In connection with it, Stisim Drive suggested a driving simulator software that it stated could further help drivers stay safer.

According to the report, which was published on November 05, 2013, 11 teens die every year due to texting while driving, Stisim Drive shared.

Below is an excerpt from the said report by woi-tv.com.
